I love the story. A mini space ship caught up in an elevator. How many space men have we vacuumed up? I think an elevator might be a scary place to another race. How many flies have we Swatted that were not flies? Is this why they disappear? Great work. Good luck with the contest.

face on [anther/another] human.
Now this story got me hooked to the end. I was even expecting this to be continued. Why don't you make it a book? Best Wishes

Well this one is different. Aliens visiting our world.

I wondered if those names that sound Latin are Earth names or alien.

Well written with plenty of dialogue. Giving a good visual and flow to the story.

Really cute. Very creative response to "stuck in an elevator". I suppose the sequel could be "stuck in a vacuum cleaner"?

Good job.

That was cute. The tiny aliens found themselves in quite a predicament. You need to do a little editing. elevator's doesn't need the apostrophe. The ship should be in attack mode, not attach.
